- the Slug Mucosal Irritation (SMI) assay was initially developed at the Laboratory of Pharmaceutical Technology (UGent) to predict the mucosal irritation potency of pharmaceutical formulations and ingredients.
- the test utilizes the terrestrial slug Arion lusitanicus.
- the body wall of the slugs is a mucosal surface composed of different layers.
- the outer single-layered columnar epithelium that contains cells with cilia, cells with micro-villi and mucus secreting cells covers the subepithelial connective tissue. Slugs that are placed on an irritating substance will produce mucus. Additionally tissue damage can be induced which results in the release of proteins and enzymes from the mucosal surface.
- the purpose of this assay was to assess the stinging, itching or burning potential of the test item(s) defined below.
- Using the objective values obtained for the mucus production the stinging, itching or burning potential of the test item(s) can be estimated by means of the prediction model that is composed of four categories (no, mild, moderate and severe).
- Test System Slugs (Arion lusitanicus); 3 slugs per treatment group.
- the parental slugs of Arion lusitanicus collected in local gardens along Gent and Aalter (Belgium) are bred in the laboratory in an acclimatized room (18-20°C).
- the slugs are housed in plastic containers and fed with lettuce, cucumber, carrots and commercial dog food.
- Test Design A single study was performed. Treatment time was 15 minutes three times on the same day.
- the stinging, itching or burning potency of the test item(s), was evaluated by placing 3 slugs per treatment group 3 times a day on 100 pL of test item in a Petri dish for 15 + 1 min. After each 15-min contact period the slugs were transferred for 60 min into a fresh Petri dish on paper towel moistened with ImL PBS to prevent desiccation. An overview of this can be seen in Figure 4.
- the amount of mucus produced during each contact period was measured by weighing the Petri dishes with the test item before and after each 15-min contact period.
- the mucus production was expressed as % of the body weight.
- the slugs were weighed before and after each 15-min contact.
- test results were based upon the total amount of mucus production during 3 repeated contact periods with the test item.
- the mucus production was expressed in % of the body weight by dividing the weight of the mucus produced during each contact period by the body weight of the slug before the start of that contact period.
- the total mucus was calculated for each slug and then the mean per treatment group was calculated.
- the classification prediction model shown in the Table below was used to classify the compounds.
- the negative control should be classified as causing no stinging, itching and burning (Total mucus production ⁇ 5.5%)
- the positive control item should be classified as causing severe stinging, itching and burning (Total mucus production > 17.5%)
- NC negative control
- PC positive control
- the average amount of mucus produced during each 15-min contact period and total mucus production (total MP) is presented in the Table above. According to the classification prediction model of the SMI test, the negative control (untreated slugs) did not induce reactions in the slugs (mean total MP ⁇ 5.5%).
- the positive control on the other hand (DDWM/SLS 80/20) induced a high mucus production during each contact period (mean total MP > 17.5%) resulting in a classification as severe stinging, itching, and burning (SIB) reactions. The acceptance criteria were met and the experiment was considered valid. In total, 4 different solutions were tested. The amount of mucus produced during each 15-min contact period was between 10% and 17.5%, indicating moderate SIB reactions.
- test items can be ranked according to increasing total mucus production: sodium acetate (10% w/v) ⁇ sodium citrate (10% w/v) ⁇ disodium fumarate (10% w/v) ⁇ sodium phosphate (10% w/v).
- NC negative control
- PC positive control
- the total MP for a 60-m in treatment (historical data) was compared with the total MP of the SIB protocol (3x 15-min treatment; current data).
- a ranking is proposed from least SIB reactions to highest SIB reactions:
- Sodium oxalate appears to be the most irritating salt since a 1% concentration results in 11.2% total MP after 1 hour of contact.
- Sodium benzoate is the least irritating salt.
- 5-MeO-DMT as a freebase compound is known to be highly irritating to the mucosal lining; therefore, it is commonly prepared as a salt for insufflation.
- the hydrochloride (HCI) salt of 5-MeO- DMT is most commonly used due to ease of crystallisation. However, it is known that the HCI salt of 5-MeO-DMT is still quite irritating to the mucosal lining.
- ovine nasal epithelium to study nasal drug absorption is a technique which is well known to the person skilled in the art.
- less 5-MeO-DMT benzoate salt may be needed by inhalation to provide the same benefit as the HCI salt and the benzoate salt is less irritating, and so provides a synergistic benefit. Smaller amounts of compound also make inhalation easier to accomplish.
- the XRPD pattern of 5-MeO-DMT benzoate salt was acquired before and following particle size reduction with a mortar and pestle. This reduced the intensity of dominant diffractions and revealed that the XRPD pattern of the benzoate salt was prone to preferred orientation prior to particle size reduction, which is a function of the habit and particle size of the material.
- XRPD patterns of the benzoate salt prior to and following particle size reduction can be seen in Figures 6 and 7 respectively.
- the XRPD patterns of the benzoate salt prior to and following particle size reduction overlaid on one another can be seen in Figure 8.

Description
Formulations of 5-MeO-DMT
Field of the invention
This invention relates to formulations of 5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (5-MeO-DMT) and uses thereof.
Background
5-MeO-DMT benzoate is the benzoate salt of the pharmacologically active compound of the tryptamine class, 5-MeO-DMT, and has the following structure:
5-MeO-DMT is a psychoactive/psychedelic substance found in nature and is believed to act mainly through serotonin receptors. It is also believed to have a high affinity for the 5-HT2 and 5-HT1A subtypes, and/or inhibits monoamine reuptake. There remains a need in the art for improved formulations of 5-MeO-DMT benzoate.
Summary
It has surprisingly been discovered that the benzoate salt of 5-MeO-DMT displays dose-proportional pharmacokinetics. This is surprising as it has previously been found that the hydrochloride salt of 5- MeO-DMT displays non-dose proportional pharmacokinetics. It is desirable that a compound for use in treatment has dose-proportional pharmacokinetics, for example, to facilitate dose and dose regimen adjustment in patients. As used herein, the terms "approximately" and "about" generally should be understood to encompass ± 5% of a specified amount or value. As used herein, "dose proportional" should be understood to mean that increases in the administered dose are accompanied by proportional increases in the PK profile, such as the AUC or Cmax.
In an embodiment, there is provided a dose-proportional pharmaceutically acceptable dry powder intranasal composition comprising 5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (5-MeO-DMT) benzoate dry powder particles, and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or excipients, for use in a method of treatment, wherein the composition has dose-proportional pharmacokinetics. In an embodiment, there is provided a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising 5-MeO-DMT, wherein administration of said composition to a subject produces in said subject a blood plasma
Cmax (ng/mL) of about 4-39, of about 5-35 or of about 6-29. In an embodiment, administration of said composition to a subject produces in said subject a Tmax (h) of about 0.05-0.5, of about 0.06- 0.3 or of about 0.1-0.25. In an embodiment, administration of said composition to a subject produces in said subject a tl/2 (h) of about 0.1-0.55, of about 0.2-0.5 or of about 0.25-0.44. In an embodiment, administration of said composition to a subject produces in said subject a AUCIast (h*ng/mL) of about 1.0-22, of about 1.2-20 or of about 1.5-18.5. In an embodiment, administration of said composition to a subject produces in said subject a AUCinf (h*ng/mL) of about 1.5-27, of about 1.7-25 or of about 1.9-24. As used herein, Cmax may refer to the maximum concentration (e.g., maximum blood plasma concentration) of a compound, as the result of the administration of a composition comprising the compound. Tmax may refer to the time required for the concentration of the compound to reach Cmax, after the administration of the composition. Tl/2 (e.g., half-life) may refer to time it takes for the concentration of the compound to halve (e.g., reach half of the Cmax), after the administration of the composition. AUCIast may refer to an area under a curve representing plasma concentration as a function of time. The area may include the last measured plasma concentration.

Detailed Description
Double-blind, randomized, Phase 1, single ascending dose studies to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic profile of intranasal 5-MeO-DMT hydrochloride and intranasal 5-MeO-DMT benzoate in healthy subjects have been performed. The results of these studies have surprisingly shown that only the benzoate salt of 5-MeO-DMT exhibits dose-proportional pharmacokinetics. It is desirable that a compound for use in treatment has dose-proportional pharmacokinetics, for example, to facilitate dose and dose regimen adjustment in patients.
There is therefore provided, in an embodiment, a method of treating a condition or disease in a subject, comprising the administration of 5-MeO-DMT benzoate to a subject in need thereof, wherein the 5-MeO-DMT benzoate has dose-proportional pharmacokinetics.

Example 3: Synthesis of5-MeO-DMT benzoate salt
5-MeO-DMT (the free base) is dissolved in toluene (1 eq) and benzoic acid (1 eq) in toluene (lOvol) is added over a period of 20 minutes and stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. The resultant precipitation/crystallization was filtered and washed with toluene (2.5vol) and dried under vacuum at room temperature.
Isopropyl acetate (IPAc) (15.8vol) was added to the solids obtained above and the temperature was raised to about 73°C until the solid dissolved. The solution was allowed to cool to 0-5°C over 2 hours and this temperature was maintained for 1 hour with stirring. The resultant benzoate salt was filtered and vacuum dried at room temperature. Yield 68%.
The benzoate salt of 5-MeO-DMT has improved characteristics over the common hydrochloride salt, including reduced mucosal irritation, increased epithelial permeability and increased stability. 5- MeO-DMT benzoate is a white to off white solid powder, soluble in water at >50mg/ml with a pH of 7-8 at 50mg/ml and a pKa of 9.71.
Example 4: 5-MeO-DMT powder
A schematic route for the preparation of a powder form of 5-MeO-DMT (or the salt thereof) is shown in Figure 3. The three main steps in the process are:
1. Spray drying a solution containing the substance(s) of interest (e.g. 5-MeO-DMT, or the salt, thereof inclusive of any excipients). This can be done via an atomizing nozzle such as with rotary atomizers, pressure atomizers, twin fluid nozzles, ultrasonic atomizers, four-fluid nozzles. This is done so as to form droplets capable of generating co-formed particles in the desired particle size range.
2. Drying of the atomized droplets (e.g. with nitrogen gas, optionally at an elevated temperature).
3. Separating and collecting the dried particles from the gas stream (e.g. using a cyclone separator to capture the required size fraction).
In an embodiment, a ProCepT spray dryer is used. In an embodiment, a ProCepT spray dryer with an ultrasonic nozzle is used.
In an embodiment, there is dissolution of 5-MeO-DMT benzoate and HPMC in water to make input solution at a 50:50 ratio.
Example 5: Slug Mucosal Irritation assay
The Slug Mucosal Irritation (SMI) assay was initially developed at the Laboratory of Pharmaceutical Technology (UGent) to predict the mucosal irritation potency of pharmaceutical formulations and ingredients. The test utilizes the terrestrial slug Arion lusitanicus. The body wall of the slugs is a mucosal surface composed of different layers. The outer single-layered columnar epithelium that contains cells with cilia, cells with micro-villi and mucus secreting cells covers the subepithelial connective tissue. Slugs that are placed on an irritating substance will produce mucus. Additionally tissue damage can be induced which results in the release of proteins and enzymes from the mucosal surface. Several studies have shown that the SMI assay is a useful tool for evaluating the
local tolerance of pharmaceutical formulations and ingredients. A classification prediction model that distinguishes between irritation (mucus production) and tissue damage (release of proteins and enzymes) has been developed. Furthermore, several studies with ophthalmic preparations have shown that an increased mucus production is related to increased incidence of stinging, itching and burning sensations. In 2010 a clinical trial was set up to evaluate the stinging and burning sensations of several diluted shampoos. A 5% shampoo dilution or artificial tears were instilled in the eye and the discomfort was scored by the participants on a 5 point scale during several time points up to 30 min after instillation. The same shampoos were tested in the SMI assay using the Stinging, Itching and Burning (SIB) protocol. This study showed that an increased mucus production was related with an increased incidence of stinging and burning sensations in the human eye irritation test. The relevance of the assay to reliably predict nasal irritation and stinging and burning sensations was demonstrated using several OTC nasal formulations, isotonic, and hypertonic saline.
Furthermore, the test was validated using reference chemicals for eye irritation (ECETOC eye reference data bank). These studies have shown that the S I assay can be used as an alternative to the in vivo eye irritation tests. Moreover, a multi-center prevalidation study with four participating laboratories showed that the SMI assay is a relevant, easily transferable and reproducible alternative to predict the eye irritation potency of chemicals.
The purpose of this assay was to assess the stinging, itching or burning potential of the test item(s) defined below. Using the objective values obtained for the mucus production the stinging, itching or burning potential of the test item(s) can be estimated by means of the prediction model that is composed of four categories (no, mild, moderate and severe).

CASRN: 68-04-2
Batch of vial: 5A/241516
Description: colourless solution
Storage condition: room temperature (compounded on the day of the experiment)
Test System: Slugs (Arion lusitanicus); 3 slugs per treatment group. The parental slugs of Arion lusitanicus collected in local gardens along Gent and Aalter (Belgium) are bred in the laboratory in an acclimatized room (18-20°C). The slugs are housed in plastic containers and fed with lettuce, cucumber, carrots and commercial dog food.
Test Design: A single study was performed. Treatment time was 15 minutes three times on the same day.
Preparation of Slugs:
Slugs weighing between 3 and 6 g were isolated from the cultures two days before the start of an experiment. The body wall was inspected carefully for evidence of macroscopic injuries. Only slugs with clear tubercles and with a foot surface that shows no evidence of injuries were used for testing purposes. The slugs were placed in a plastic box lined with paper towel moistened with PBS and were kept at 18 - 20°C. Daily the body wall of the slugs was wetted with 300 pl PBS using a micropipette.
Test Procedure:
The stinging, itching or burning potency of the test item(s), was evaluated by placing 3 slugs per treatment group 3 times a day on 100 pL of test item in a Petri dish for 15 + 1 min. After each 15-min contact period the slugs were transferred for 60 min into a fresh Petri dish on paper towel moistened with ImL PBS to prevent desiccation. An overview of this can be seen in Figure 4.
Mucus Production:
The amount of mucus produced during each contact period was measured by weighing the Petri dishes with the test item before and after each 15-min contact period. The mucus production was expressed as % of the body weight. The slugs were weighed before and after each 15-min contact.
Classification prediction model
Based on the endpoint of the SMI assay the stinging, itching or burning potency of the test item(s) was estimated using a classification prediction model.
The evaluation of the test results was based upon the total amount of mucus production during 3 repeated contact periods with the test item.
For each slug, the mucus production was expressed in % of the body weight by dividing the weight of the mucus produced during each contact period by the body weight of the slug before the start of that contact period. The total mucus was calculated for each slug and then the mean per treatment group was calculated. The classification prediction model shown in the Table below was used to classify the compounds.
Acceptance criteria
Before a test was considered valid, the following criteria must be met: the negative control should be classified as causing no stinging, itching and burning (Total mucus production < 5.5%) the positive control item should be classified as causing severe stinging, itching and burning (Total mucus production > 17.5%)
Irritation Potential
Amount of mucus produced (MP) during each 15-min contact period (CP) and total amount of mucus produced
NC: negative control; PC: positive control; BAC: benzalkonium chloride 1Mean + SD, n=3
2 No: total MP < 5.5%; Mild: 5.5% < total MP < 10%; Moderate: 10% < total MP < 17.5%; Severe: total MP > 17.5%
The average amount of mucus produced during each 15-min contact period and total mucus production (total MP) is presented in the Table above. According to the classification prediction model of the SMI test, the negative control (untreated slugs) did not induce reactions in the slugs (mean total MP < 5.5%). The positive control on the other hand (DDWM/SLS 80/20) induced a high mucus production during each contact period (mean total MP > 17.5%) resulting in a classification as severe stinging, itching, and burning (SIB) reactions. The acceptance criteria were met and the experiment was considered valid. In total, 4 different solutions were tested. The amount of mucus produced during each 15-min contact period was between 10% and 17.5%, indicating moderate SIB reactions. The test items can be ranked according to increasing total mucus production: sodium acetate (10% w/v) < sodium citrate (10% w/v) < disodium fumarate (10% w/v) < sodium phosphate (10% w/v).
Amount of mucus produced (MP) during each 15-min contact period (CP) and total amount of mucus produced
NC: negative control; PC: positive control; BAC: benzalkonium chloride 1Mean ± SD, n=3 2 No: total MP < 5.5%; Mild: 5.5% < total MP < 10%; Moderate: 10% < total MP < 17.5%; Severe: total
MP > 17.5%
Amount of mucus produced (MP) during each 30-min contact period (CP) and total amount of mucus produced (Code 00E04)
Amount of mucus produced (MP) during each 60-min contact period (CP) and total amount of mucus produced
Amount of mucus produced (MP) during a 60-min contact period (CP)
Results
The total MP for a 60-m in treatment (historical data) was compared with the total MP of the SIB protocol (3x 15-min treatment; current data). In the Table below a ranking is proposed from least SIB reactions to highest SIB reactions:
Sodium oxalate appears to be the most irritating salt since a 1% concentration results in 11.2% total MP after 1 hour of contact. Sodium benzoate is the least irritating salt.
Example 6: Further slug mucosal irritation (SMI) testing
5-MeO-DMT as a freebase compound is known to be highly irritating to the mucosal lining; therefore, it is commonly prepared as a salt for insufflation. The hydrochloride (HCI) salt of 5-MeO- DMT is most commonly used due to ease of crystallisation. However, it is known that the HCI salt of 5-MeO-DMT is still quite irritating to the mucosal lining.
Following the results above indicating that sodium benzoate is the least irritating salt of those studied; further SMI testing was performed on 5-MeO-DMT benzoate and the common 5-MeO-DMT HCI salt according to the previously described methods (of the previous Example). The results of this are shown below:
The 5-MeO-DMT benzoate produced 'mild' irritation compared to the 5-MeO-DMT HCI which scored as 'moderate' on testing.
Example 7 Permeation data
The use of ovine nasal epithelium to study nasal drug absorption is a technique which is well known to the person skilled in the art.
The permeation of 5-MeO-DMT benzoate and 5-MeO-DMT HCI has been studied by the current applicants. Dosing solutions corresponding to 1.25% concentration were prepared in water and applied to ovine nasal epithelium. The average cumulative (pg/cm2) of permeation of the benzoate and hydrochloride salt are shown in the Table below (mean ± SD, n=5):
The cumulative amount of 5-MeO-DMT benzoate and 5-MeO-DMT hydrochloride which permeated through ovine nasal epithelium per unit area following application of 1.25% dosing solutions prepared in water (mean ± SD, n=5) can be seen in Figure 5. As can be seen, the benzoate salt has higher permeation across the epithelium. The above data obtained in the above test show that the 5-MeO-DMT benzoate salt gives higher permeation with less mucosal irritation than the commonly used HCI salt; and so this combination of properties makes the benzoate salt an ideal candidate for mucosal delivery. For example, less 5-MeO-DMT benzoate salt may be needed by inhalation to provide the same benefit as the HCI salt and the benzoate salt is less irritating, and so provides a synergistic benefit. Smaller amounts of compound also make inhalation easier to accomplish.
Example 8: X-Ray Powder Diffraction (XRPD) of 5-MeO-DMT benzoate
The XRPD pattern of 5-MeO-DMT benzoate salt, was acquired before and following particle size reduction with a mortar and pestle. This reduced the intensity of dominant diffractions and revealed that the XRPD pattern of the benzoate salt was prone to preferred orientation prior to particle size reduction, which is a function of the habit and particle size of the material. XRPD patterns of the benzoate salt prior to and following particle size reduction can be seen in Figures 6 and 7 respectively. The XRPD patterns of the benzoate salt prior to and following particle size reduction overlaid on one another can be seen in Figure 8.

Example 10: A double-blind, randomized, Phase 1, single ascending dose study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic profile of intranasal 5-MeO-DMT benzoate (BPL-003) in healthy subjects
A single ascending dose study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic profile of intranasal 5-MeO-DMT benzoate (BPL-003) was performed. The doses tested were lmg, 2.5mg, 4mg, 6mg, 8mg, lOmg and 12mg.
The pharmacokinetics were shown to be approximately dose linear. No dose exceeded the maximum exposure limits defined by previous preclinical work in dogs: Cmax: 421ng/mL or AUG 220 h.ng/mL. The mean (+/- SD) 5-MeO-DMT plasma linear concentration-time plot and plasma log concentration-time plot are shown in Figures 9 and 10, respectively.
The mean Cmax was 29ng/mL for the 12mg dosage. The mean Tmax was 9.5 minutes whilst the mean half-life (TI/2) was 21 minutes. Bufotenin, the O-demethylated metabolite of 5-MeO-DMT, was only detected at very low levels at the 6mg dose level after the 16 minutes timepoint.

Example 11: A double-blind, randomized, Phase 1, single ascending dose study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic profile of intranasal 5-MeO-DMT HCI (BPL-002) in healthy subjects
A single ascending dose study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic profile of intranasal 5-MeO-DMT HCI (BPL-002) was performed. BPL-002 comprises 5-MeO-DMT HCI, HPMC, water for injection (WFI) and a sodium hydroxide solution to adjust pH. An initial stock solution of 0.5 %w/w HMPC was prepared using sterile water for injection which was further diluted with sterile water for injection to approximately 90% of the final weight required. The required amount of drug substance (70 mg/ml or 140 mg/ml Freebase) was then dissolved in an aliquot of the 0.5% w/w HPMC stock solution with stirring and the pH of the active stock solution was then adjusted to 6.00 +/- 0.25 by adding sodium hydroxide (0.1M solution). The IPC measurement was taken to ensure the pH is adjusted within the accepted range before making up to the final weight with sterile water for injection The concentration of the HPMC in the final solution was 0.1% w/w.
Placebo solutions of 0.1%w/w HPMC were made up by dissolving the required amount of HPMC in sterile water for injection (approximately 90% of final weight) and adjusted for pH 5.75 +/- 0.25 if necessary by the addition of sodium hydroxide solution (0.05M). The in process check measurement was taken to ensure the pH is adjusted within the accepted range before making up so the final weight with sterile water for injection. The concentration of the HPMC in the final solution was 0.1% w/w. The mean (+/- SD) 5-MeO-DMT plasma linear concentration-time plot and plasma log concentration-time plot are shown in Figures 11 and 12, respectively.

Example 12: Mouse Forced Swim Test
This study aimed to assess the effect of 5-MeO-DMT Benzoate at three doses in the mouse Forced Swim Test (FST).
Husbandry
Housing and Acclimation
Animals received a 72-hour period of acclimation to the test facility prior to the commencement of testing. Animals were housed four per cage in polycarbonate cages bedded with %" bed -o'cob. Cages were changed, and enrichment provided according to standard operating procedures. Animals were maintained on a 12-hour light/12-hour dark cycle with all experimental activity occurring during the animals' light cycle. All animal use procedures were performed in accordance with the principles of the Canadian Council on Animal Care (CCAC).
Food and Water
Certified Rodent Diet (LabDiet® 5001) was offered ad libitum. Animals were not fasted prior to, or after the experiment was initiated. Water was provided ad libitum in glass bottles with stainless steel sippers.
Study Design
Test Subjects
Male CD-I mice from Charles River Laboratories (St. Constant, Quebec, Canada) served as test subjects in this study. Animals generally weighed 25-30 g at the time of testing.
Schedule of Events
Treatment Groups
Pre-FST Behavioural Test
On day 0, in addition to the forced swim test animals were evaluated for signs of 5-HT (serotonin) syndrome. Animals were exposed to activity chambers for 10 minutes at two timepoints post dose: (1) 5-15 minutes post dose, and (2) 2.5 hours post dose. Forced Swim Test
Male CD-I mice received the appropriate dose of vehicle, test article, or positive control (treatments summarized above). Following the appropriate pre-treatment time, animals were gently placed into tall glass cylinders filled with water (20-25°C). After a period of vigorous activity, each mouse adopted a characteristic immobile posture which is readily identifiable. The swim test involves scoring the duration of immobility. Over a 6-minute test session, the latency to first immobility is recorded (in seconds). The duration of immobility (in seconds) during the last 4 minutes of the test is also measured. Activity or inactivity from 0-2 minutes is not recorded.

The DVS profile for 5-MeO-DMT benzoate salt, revealed reversible water uptake/loss over the humidity range and no hysteresis. The water uptake/loss from 0 to 90% was gradual and amounted to a maximum of ca 0.20% and was a consequence of wetting of the solid. There was no evidence of form/version modification as a consequence of exposure of 5-MeO-DMT benzoate salt to variable humidity. The DVS isotherm can be seen in Figure 15.
The DVS isotherm of a 5-MeO-DMT Hydrochloride, lot 20/20/126-FP (Figure 16) was found to undergo significant moisture uptake upon the first sorption cycle from 70%RH. Approximately 23%w/w uptake is observed between 70-80%RH, whereas less than 0.3%w/w moisture uptake from 0-
70%RH was observed. A further 20%w/w moisture uptake is observed up to and when held at 90%RH before commencement of the second desorption cycle. Subsequent sorption and desorption cycles follow a similar profile with some observed hysteresis between operations that do not match the original desorption step. These return to ca. 6-9%w/w above the minimum mass recorded at 0%RH, which indicates significant retention of moisture. Upon completion of the DVS cycle, the input material was noted to have completed deliquesced. A modified DVS isotherm of lot 20/45/006-FP (the same crystalline version) was undertaken to examine material behaviour from 60%RH and above. A 2 cycle DVS with desorption beginning from 40-0%RH with sorption from 0-60%RH in 10%RH intervals, followed by incremental 5%RH increases to 65, 70, 75, 80 and finally 85%RH. This was to obtain in-depth profiling of the material towards humidity at these elevated levels. No significant moisture uptake/loss in first desorption-sorption profile between 0-70%RH was noted (Figure 17) followed by a ca. 0.46%w/w increase from 70-75%RH. A further co. 7% uptake is observed from 75-80%RH, then co. 40% from 80-85%w/w. Complete deliquescence of the solids was observed upon isolation of the material post DVS analysis, which had likely occurred above 80%RH. Temperature and humidity are important factors in the processing and storage of pharmaceuticals. DVS provides a versatile and sensitive technique for evaluating the stability of pharmaceutical formulations. The DVS profiles show that the stability of the benzoate salt of 5-MeO-DMT is significantly higher than that of the hydrochloride salt and is therefore a more promising salt for development as a pharmaceutical composition.
Example 14: Phase 1 study results on the effects of 5-MeO-DMT benzoate (BPL-003) on facial emotion processing in psychedelic-naive healthy subjects
Up to 60% of patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) remain inadequately treated, with approximately 30% of patients with MDD experiencing treatment resistant depression (TRD). Preliminary epidemiological studies of short-lasting psychedelic compounds such as 5-MeO-DMT have reported beneficial outcomes in psychiatric disorders, including alleviation of depressive symptoms. The Facial Expression Recognition Task (FERT) has been shown to be sensitive to changes in positive and negative bias that occur following treatment with antidepressants in healthy volunteers and in patients. To determine changes in positive or negative bias, the FERT was included in a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomised, single-centre, phase 1 study evaluating the effects of a single ascending intranasal doses of 5-MeO-DMT benzoate (BPL-003).
Study population
44 psychedelic naive healthy participants were enrolled across seven cohorts (see Table 1).
Participants received a single intranasal dose of BPL-003 or matching placebo together with psychological support.
Assessments
The FERT is a digital task in which participants are serially presented faces expressing different emotions (anger, disgust, fear, happiness, sadness, surprise, neutral) at valenced intensities and they respond by selecting the emotion they identify via a touchscreen. The FERT was conducted on Day 1 pre-dose (baseline), on Day 2 at 22-24 hours post-dose, and at follow-up on Day 8. Other assessments of safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics (including questionnaires for subjective effects) were also conducted.
Results
Several trends were observed indicating that BPL-003 has positive effects on emotional biases. There was a trend showing that participants had an improvement from baseline in recognising happiness when administered 10 mg BPL-003 (Mdn = 17.57%, IQR = 5.66% - 19.17%) and 12 mg BPL- 003 (Mdn = 7.37%, IQR = 6.14% - 8.65%) compared to placebo (Mdn = 2.5%, IQR = -3.64% - 10.26%) on Day 2. On Day 2 there was a trend for the recognition of sadness to decrease in drug-treated (Mdn range = -12.83% - -6.99%) compared to placebo-treated participants (Mdn = -5.27%, IQR = - 12.82% - 0%).
Improvements in the recognition of happiness can suggest an increase in the bias towards that emotion. Similarly, reductions in the accuracy for recognising sadness suggests a decrease in the bias towards negative emotions. These results show that BPL-003 has a positive effect on emotional biases 22-24 hours after administration, which may provide an early objective measure of improvements in mood.
